Casio Vintage Watch: Your New Favorite

There are some things in life that you need and there are others that you want. Consider a reliable wristwatch a closet necessity! Aside from the aesthetically pleasing advantages of wearing a watch, there are many practical benefits as well. We live in an era where we use our phones for everything – including checking the time.

Burgundy Bodysuit and Culottes: Monochrome Holiday Attire

Now that you have a chill clothes on hand, let’s keep planning festive looks! Today I am going to teach you how to piece together a holiday outfit featuring a burgundy bodysuit. These trendy items do not have to come off as “slutty.” Look classy and sexy with these easy-to-follow guidelines. The Cut Choose a bodysuit wisely. Carefully consider your assets and buy one that will flatter your unique body type. Maybe you have toned arms. Show them off with a sleeveless or halter neckline. Maybe you are proud of your back. Look for a backless or sheer back bodysuit. The more confident you are on the inside, the more fabulous you’ll look on the outside. The Color If you’re still warming up to the bodysuit trend, consider a black or monochrome ensemble. Less is definitely more when you’re wearing a potentially racy garment. In the featured look I dressed in burgundy top to bottom. The solid jewel tones created a polished and elegant feel. Don’t fixate on the colors matching perfectly. As long as they are in the same family, they’ll work together. The Bottom When you have a lot going on on […]

Tassel Sweater and Faux Leather Leggings

It is the most wonderful time of the year…if you like to party! Fashionistas nationwide are busy planning festive holiday outfits. It is so fun to dress for special occasions, that we often forget to plan for everything in between. This tassel sweater was one of my Black Friday finds, (still only $58 regular price) and it is filling the void! No matter what holidays you celebrate, November and December are great months to enjoy time with friends and family. With a couple of parties down and one more to go, I was in dire need of “chill clothes.” Yes, I “chill” in high heels, #shortpeopleproblems but I am most confident when overly dressed. Whether you are curled up on the couch watching football, or out to dinner and a movie, a sweater dress and leggings combo will fit the bill! I styled this look with faux leather leggings and multicolored OTK boots (look for less here), but flats and matte leggings would look equally as fabulous. For added warmth I bundled up in my favorite leather and imitation fur gloves. What a difference it makes when your hands are toasty… and you don’t have to take them […]

Chic Sweatshirt or Poncho?

Do you own a poncho?! If your answer is no, click here to purchase your first one…I can promise you it will not be your last! Synonymous with chic sweatshirt, a poncho is as comfortable as your favorite hoodie, yet stylish enough to wear as a fabulous overcoat. Best of all, a poncho will pair nicely with just about everything you already own. Dress up your jeans and flats outfit, or top a bodycon midi dress for added coverage. The options are endless. When I first received these two items from SheIn, I didn’t consider wearing them together. Little did I know, this black turtleneck poncho was the perfect match for a patchwork skirt! It is not a secret – I have a “thing” for over the knee boots! Over the last several weeks I have styled them like this, this, and this. I am always looking for an excuse to wear them. When I came across this incredible skirt, I jumped on the opportunity to wear my OTK boots AGAIN. The patchwork design is an eclectic take on the traditional faux leather mini skirt. I was attracted to the mustard and brown panels, but it’s […]
